Shaun said, “You sound experienced. You must have been cheated on plenty of times before.”

He sure was sharp. Blake had indeed been cheated on during his senior year by his then-girlfriend.

“What the hell?! Are you looking for a fight?!”

Blake was a student-athlete, which meant that he was tall, well-built, and fierce. When he stormed over, I instinctively took a step back from him, but Shaun pulled me into his arms.

“Don’t be scared.” I heard him whisper.

With wide eyes, I watched him and Blake. They were about the same height, but Shaun looked more imposing.

Shaun did not even look at Blake. Instead, he looked at Anna. “Keep your dog on a leash. He scared my wife.”

Anna looked embarrassed and grabbed Blake before whispering something to him. Then, he gave me a look. “You’re such a disappointment.”

When we were dating, I was terrified of him uttering those exact words to me, but as I leaned against Shaun’s arms, I felt confident. “And you’re sticking your nose somewher

    In the end, I went to the student reunion and dragged Shaun along because he said that he vaguely remembered the restaurant where it was held. When I thought that there was a possibility of him remembering more things, I was so excited that I arrived half an hour early to roam about the restaurant with him. I only dragged him to where the reunion was when it was almost time. I thought that we were already late, but we ended up running into Blake at the door. He was dressed formally, and he looked as if he was here on a blind date. “You brought him to the student reunion? Really?” “So? Can’t I bring my family along?” Before he could respond, I opened the door and walked in. I also mumbled under my breath that he was a massive idiot. During the years I was caught in the cycle of breaking up and making up with Blake, it had endlessly provided gossip for my classmates. When they saw me coming in with Shaun in tow, their eyes shone with so much curiosity that the only thing la

    Shaun came to sleep in my room again. This time, he brought a pillow and blanket with him. By the looks of it, he planned to stay for the long haul. We said nothing to each other. I did not know what he was thinking, but I felt quite nervous. Suddenly, Shaun sat up. “Are you mad at me for today?” I sat up too and stared at him in puzzlement. “Are you mad at me for telling them we’re married?” I still did not understand him, but he seemed to have come to some sort of conclusion of his own. “Even though you dated Blake before, you’re my wife now. You can’t be mad at me because of that. Otherwise, I’ll deduct your allowance.” What even was going on? Even though he was being unreasonable, I understood what he meant. Basically, it was okay for him to flirt with other women, but I was not allowed to. As a man, he did not want his wife to think of another man. “I’m not mad, honey. You treat me nicely enough, so how could I get mad at you?” Shaun stared fixedly at me as

    Lily’s face soured, but she still agreed to it. “Sign the divorce agreement. I’ll give you a week’s time to pack your things. As for the divorce procedure, you don’t have to bother about it. I—” “No need for that.” I interrupted her and gave her a flattering smile. “Within three days, I’ll return Shaun to you.” Before Lily left, she gave me a puzzled look. “You’re leaving him so readily?” What a weirdo! Was I supposed to kick up a fuss and then delay till I get my twenty million? But rich people were sometimes a little sick in the head, so I asked tentatively, “Do you… want us to have a catfight before we sign the contract?” Lily slammed the door in my face. Wind gushed in when it did, and it blew the two pieces of paper on the table to the floor. I quickly crouched down to pick them up, only to find that I did not have the energy to get back up. It hurt. It felt as if someone had dug a hole in my heart. In those two seconds, I was not hesitating over whether ten mi

  • I Became Rich After Marriage   Chapter 8

    Perhaps it was because she could not pester me into remarrying that my mother decided to get married herself. I did not oppose it. I was even happy that she would have no time to nag at me for a while after this. But I had underestimated her. From the tenth minute after I reached home, she held my stepfather’s hand and blatantly flirted with him to subtly tell me about the wonders of marriage. It got even worse at night. She planted her hands on her hips and roared, “I’ve been married twice already now, and you’re not! Do you want me to wallop your butt?!” After some hesitation, I agreed to the blind date she had planned for me the next day. I suppose the blame lay on my first hasty marriage of the past. It had been so rushed that I had not told her I was married until the last second or that I had gotten divorced. My mother told me that the manager of the dating website highly recommended this man. He was perfect in every respect, so she told me to give it my best and n

  • I Became Rich After Marriage   Chapter 1

    My marriage to Shaun Lowell began because of a community gathering. At that time, I had just turned twenty-seven, and all I heard from my mother was her constant nagging to get married. The pressure made me react in anger, and I made my way to flirt with Shaun, who looked like the most eligible bachelor in the entire gathering. But he was even more straightforward than I was. When he saw me, he said, “Do you want to get married? I’ll give you at least two hundred thousand dollars a month as allowance.” At an offer like that, rejecting him would have been outright rude. Right after we introduced ourselves, we got married in the afternoon. During the two years of our marriage, we only saw each other once. In the beginning, I was worried that this was an elaborate scam, but he did not disrupt my life in any way in the past two years, aside from making me rich. “Ms. Snow, if there isn’t any problem with the form, please sign it and pick up your husband.” I wanted to tell him th

    That night, I tossed and turned in bed for more than an hour. While I knew that Shaun could indeed afford to give me two million dollars, his word alone was not enough. Two million was not a small sum. What if he refused to keep his promise? Or what if he remembered the past and forgot the present? I thought that the risk was too great, so I got out of bed and worked overnight to write an official letter of guarantee. The next day, I woke up early and threw away all the coke in the fridge. Then, I went downstairs to get water and breakfast for Shaun. When I got home, Shaun was lying on the couch in a night robe. He must have just gotten up. But his eyes were closed, and it seemed like he had fallen asleep again. I carefully put my stuff down and got a blanket for him. Generous bosses like him were rare, so I had to treat him well. Shaun was good-looking and had long, shapely legs. I could even see a V-line under his abs. He was even better looking than the men who lo

    “Hey, handsome? Can I have your phone number?” This was already the third beautiful woman to hit on Shaun today. As a dutiful employee, I immediately turned around and pretended that I did not exist. Men were simple creatures. If I, a woman, found another woman beautiful, then he obviously might find her pretty as well, so I had to stay out of the way. Besides, these ladies could also lighten my workload of taking care of Shaun, so I considered them sisters in spirit even if they were not blood-related. “Aurora Snow.” “Yes, Mr. Lowell?” I perked up like a loyal lackey and even greeted the lady. “Miss, you’re really pretty! You’re a real match for my boss.” “Boss?” the woman asked. By the sounds of it, she did not quite believe what I had said. That would not do. While I did not care about being the obstacle in Shaun’s path to getting a girlfriend, I massively cared about him deducting my pay because of that. It was a complete no-no. “Yes! This is my boss.
